Just a little bit emotional today….. cleared my digital and real (old school!) files. Packed up some personal stuff, briefly enjoyed a rare empty in-box and the support of my right hand woman of the past 11 years 🥲 Bye bye Westport its been a whole lot of fun!!!

Unacceptable on every level. Let’s get serious about supporting the mental health of NHS and social care staff #woundedhealer24
Dr Chaand Nagpaul @CNagpaul #WoundedHealer24 1/3 of NHS staff are affected by #burnout or mental distress. This adversely affects their performance and increases medical errors. Wellbeing of healthcare workforce improves patient care.

A heartfelt thank you by @WHO’s @DrMikeRyan to all of our incredible health workers around the world who have worked tirelessly to keep us safe. They are underpaid, overworked, and often not given the respect they deserve - we are truly grateful for all that you have done!
